Weaver Talks Cameron's AVATAR

Actress Sigourney Weaver has shed some light on James Cameron's upcoming AVATAR movie in which she stars. Very little is known other than it's looking to take advantage of digital 3-D technology that most theaters will have to equip themselves with before Memorial Day 2009. (It hits theaters May 22, 2009).

Here's what she had to say;

"It's a fantastic movie.So ambitious. So romantic and sweeping," says Weaver, who was shooting again this week. "I can't wait to get back."

Weaver has only positive things to say about her co-star, "Macbeth" star Worthington.

"He's a terrific actor, he really is. And a lovely guy. I think he's going to do a wonderful job. His humour and charm and just genuineness as a person are very evident as soon as you start working with him."

Weaver says she plays a botanist who mentors Worthington's character.

"I'm not allowed to give too much away, but we have parallel adventures. There's a younger person's story and a smaller, older person's story all happening at the same time. All my scenes are with [Worthington]. It's really a lovely relationship."

So is this like old 3d movies, I mean what if you only have one eye? And I know this sounds like I'm joking, but I'm not.

or one nut?

almostunbiased...I have to take what you say jokingly cause I can't remember the last time I saw someone at the theaters with one eye,lol...
I believe this is new 3-D technology but the glasses will still be needed although the glass lenses are not two different colors like they were in the past, they are one color so I believe a one eyed person can enjoy the 3-D movies also...

And it's only compounded by the fact that 70% of the time I am joking when I post, but I have a friend who is legally blind in one eye. So he has never enjoyed a 3D movie.
As for the half nuts people . . . ?

I don't know if I am excited for this or not. I mean James Cameron is the balls, but, it will have been 12 years since his last movie (Titanic), and that is a shit long time. Either this is going to be the best movie ever for him to take on this project after so long, or,,,,,well, who knows....I guess i'll have to see a trailer.

He should do Spidey in 3D

mlaforcer--

While a one-eyed person can enjoy the movie, the 3D aspect will be mostly lost on them. Even the new 3D technology requires stereoscopic vision, which means they would ne two functional eyes.
